Jose Padilla was living in the Ft. Lauderdale area and studying Islam at the SAME TIME that Timothy McVeigh was living in Plantation, FL which is right next door to Ft. Lauderdale. This doesn't mean yet that they met, but it does show they had to opportunity to know each other. And I am still wondering about the whereabouts of Jose Padilla in April, 1995.

Great find, PJ. Another piece of the puzzle, perhaps?

You know something, I'm starting to believe now...
I knew the bombing looked like a car bomb, and my gut reaction said "Islamic tangos." Looks like they hitched up with a couple of fall guys.

From an old conspiracy report on
Constitution.org:
JOHN DOE #2 IDENTIFIED: BUT CAN WE GET THE FBI TO ARREST HIM?
"...when Terry L. Nichols and co-defendant Timothy McVeigh were indicted with "others unknown" for the April 19, 1995 Oklahoma City bombing of the Murrah Federal Building, the grand jury's report said the the conspiracy was financed in part by the Nov. 5, 1994 robbery of an Arkansas gun dealer. That theft involved 70 weapons and other property taken at gunpoint from a Royal, Ark., man. Roger Moore, the 60 year old victim, said he was alone at 9:15 a.m. when he stepped outside his house and was surprised by an intruder who wore "woodland" pattern camouflage fatigues and a black ski mask . The suspect subdued Moore with a postol-grip shotgun and then bound him with flex cuff restraints and duct tape.
As it turns out,
Moore was once a friend of Tim McVeigh and says the two met at a gun show in Florida in 1995* and stayed in contact thereafter. Moore told investigators that on one visit to his home, McVeigh was wearing a T-shirt emblazoned with the words "White Power." The McCurtain Gazette has also learned the McVeigh's associations include membership in the Ku Klux Klan."
*[This would have had to be before April 19, 1995.]

How old is Jose Padilla? We're talking eight or nine years ago in terms of initial linkage with McVeigh ... does it come together in terms of their respective ages.

Interesting...I wonder if McVeigh was a Taco Bell addict. Also, does Padilla have any ties to WTC-93?
To: PJ-Comix
So why don't they just do a lie detector test on him and ask him if he knew McVeigh?

The radical mosque that Padilla was attending, Masjid al-Iman, is also in Fort Lauderdale.

Won't it be funny if people on FR have to eat crow and admit MR was right. Haahaaha. Oh boy...

I honestly think that the guy who they called John Doe #2, is actually Mohammed Atta. Then there's Andre Strassemeir. Either one might be John Doe #2. Padilla, in 1993, was a little heavier and also looks a lot like John Doe #2. Hell it could be anyone. I would probably say it's Padilla, but I lean to Mohammed Atta. The reason why, is that he stayed at the same hotel as McVeigh for many weeks prior to the bombing.

Check this out. What was the name of Terry Nichols' former wife?
Lana Padilla
Could be a coincidence, but what a strange one.
From the article:
In the November 1994 letter, which Mrs. Padilla was instructed not to open until January, Nichols asked her to clean out a storage locker and divide his assets -- including a life insurance policy -- between their son, Josh, and his new wife and daughter in the Philippines.
Lots of terrorist organization activity in the Philippines.

this is starting to get interesting.
To: PJ-Comix
John Berger is now reporting on
www.whoisjohndoe2.com that Benevolence International's lease in Florida coincides with the time McVeigh was in Fort Lauderdale.
To: PJ-Comix
It has always bothered me "why" was the execution of McVeigh carried out SO swiftly.
To: PJ-Comix
Taliban Johnny- American citizen caught fighting in a foreign country - open civilian trial
Masoui (sp) non citizen caught in American acting as a combatant - open civilian trial
Padilla - American citizen caught on American soil want-a-be combatant- secret military trial
Now I get it.

And to know this was all happening in my hometown. Grew up and went to school in Plantation. Ugh...this place needs to be cleaned out. Where is Harvey Keitel? We need "The Cleaner"...excellent find here

I have heard that Padilla has been arrested and will be held until the "war on terror" is over. Is this true?? Who is holding him? Does he have a lawyer? Has he been charged? Will he get a trial? Is his case different that all of the other terrorists captured so far? Why was the administration wincing about Ashcrofts characterization of Padilla's "plot"? If Padilla was JD#2, then wouldn't he be a terrible liability to those who are involved in the cover-up of OKC?? Wouldn't it make sense that those folks would want JD#2/Padilla contained? Why was Ashcroft hell bent on seeing McVeigh dead. Even in light of the thousands of documents the FBI suddenly found before the execution. Could Ashcroft want Padilla contained for the same reasons? Will we see a death penalty in Padilla's future? Why would this administration be continuing the cover-up of the OKC tradgedy.....which occured on Clintons watch? When will we get to see ALL of the video tapes showing JD#2? It would after all put this issue to rest........or does the government have something to hide?
